I worry that the replacement is more likely a move to platforms like Discord. I mean it's already happened in a lot of projects.

Discord is terrible for this.

I hate Discord with a passion. Trying to get everyone I know away from it.

If they move to Discord, nobody will ever be able to find the answers. They must use a website that is indexable by search engines or it will be pointless.

Yeah. But this already happens, unfortunately.

I've never been accused of being a smart man.
